Didn't you have reading comprehension back in primary school or something? How did so many end up functionally illiterate?

@SW-User so education isn't compulsory over there? Wow... It still surprises me though, that people who know how to write and read still cannot understand what exactly they are reading. They know the words but only individually.

@HannibalAteMeOut Nope, it isn’t, despite the fact that Vietnamese consider education to be one of the most important necessities. Ironic, isn’t it? 😆 I think learning how to read is one thing, but learning to comprehend it the right way is a different story.
